Terminal blocks - headers, plugs and sockets are used to connect two or more circuits together and are the primary component of electronic devices. A terminal block is usually composed of conductive material, such as metal or plastic, and is used to distribute power to an electronic device. There are several types of terminal blocks: headers, plugs and sockets.

Headers

Headers are two or more pins that are wired together, usually for power distribution. This type of terminal block generally has two screw terminals, one on the outside and one on the inside. The outside terminal is usually a large screw with two metal spikes that grip the power conductor, while the inside terminal is a small screw which is usually just used to secure the power conductor in place.

Plugs

Plugs are the terminals used in an electrical circuit to connect wires to other components. They typically have three or more pins, which can either be soldered or crimped. Plugs are usually secured with screws, and are perfect for connecting multiple components in an electronic device.

Sockets

Sockets are the actual point of contact that the wires go to. Much like plugs, they usually have three or more pins and they are secured with screws. Unlike plugs, however, they usually have a female terminal on the outside which is used to secure the wire in place. These are typically used to connect multiple components together in an electronic device.

1673220000 Application Field and Working Principle

Terminal blocks are widely used in a variety of applications such as consumer electronics, industrial automation, data interfaces, and power supplies. The working principle of a terminal block depends on the type, as each type performs differently.

Headers are used mainly for power distribution, as they have two screw terminals, one to secure the power conductor and one to secure the connection. Plugs, on the other hand, are typically used to connect wires to other components as they have multiple terminals for connections. Lastly, sockets have a female terminal which is used to securely attach wires to the device. This terminal is often used to connect multiple components together.
